A Love as Bold as a Texas Sunset . . .

Ex-army medic Katya Smith has always healed other people's pain. Now she has to deal with her own. Taking a job as an athletic trainer on the Pro Bull Riding circuit seems like the perfect escape from her grief-except Katya doesn't know anything about bulls, and even less about the tough men who ride them. She doesn't expect to fall for the sport, or for one tantalizing cowboy who tumbles her defenses.

For rodeo champion Cam Cahill, fifteen years of bucking bulls have taken their toll on his body. Before he retires, he wants a final chance at the world title-and he doesn't need some New Age gypsy telling him how to do his job. But when the stunning trainer with the magical hands repairs more than his worn muscles, everything changes. Soon Cam finds himself trying to persuade Katya to forgive her past so she can build a future . . . with him.

About the Author

Laura Drake grew up in the suburbs outside Detroit. A tomboy, she's always loved the outdoors and adventure. In 1980 she and her sister packed everything they owned into Pintos and moved to California. There she met and married a motorcycling, bleed-maroon Texas Aggie and her love affair with the West began.

In 2014, Laura realized a lifelong dream of becoming a Texan, and is currently working on her accent. She gave up the corporate CFO gig to write full time. She's a wife, grandmother, and motorcycle chick in the remaining waking hours.

A complex story

Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2018

Years ago, I used to read a lot of romance novels. As I got older, I started reading suspense/thriller novels and never went back to romance. However, recently I decided I needed some lighter reading from time to time and read a few romance novels. And I was disappointed in every one of them. They were full of cardboard characters, disalogue that sounded the same no matter who was speaking and relationships that didn't develop in a believeable way.

Imagine how surprised I was when I started reading Sweet On You. This story of Katya, whose career in the military is short-circuited due to PTSD, and Cam, the bullrider who knows the end of his bullriding days is drawing near and can't see a life without it. Each character in this book is a 'real' person, with a distinctive voice. And as we follow the plot we witness both Katya and Cam learning to let go of the past to grab for the future. In the process, they fall in love and this happens so naturally, it seems believeable when they also fall in bed together. This is a romance but it is so much more. This is a story of learning to forgive yourself. After all, aren't we all our own worst critic?

Cam is a bull rider facing the end of his career and having no clue what to do next. Katya is an Army medic sent home and feeling she has lost her heeling after an incident while deployed. She takes a job as a medic on the PBR tour knowing absolutely nothing about the life. They both have tough decisions to make and it is interesting to watch them connect with each other. The bull riding scenes make you feel like you are on the bull. A great read!

The Sweet Spot in life your get to share. Author Laura Drake has done a wonderful job of sharing the spot.

This book is a story about real people and how, when you think all of your life is perfect, a tragedy happens and shatters all the lives involved with the family of a young couple. Everyone handles the bad things that occur in life different ways. Some withdraw, some seem to cope and go on with no effects and some completely shatter and seem bent on destroying all the good there was in the life they had made. All hope and desire are buried and must be forgotten except when a weak moment occurs. Then time goes by and small openings let in new friends and a memory that has stayed in the back of the mind starts to slip back in and you realize maybe happiness may still be open for you. If you are a romantic you will love this story of how a man and woman, if they work to make it, will bloom in spite of the hurt they have gone through. A real Cowboy and his girl story that will make you laugh, cry and feel the love come to life between them.

MASTERFUL Writing; Characters, Plot & Setting

Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2015

Verified Purchase

As a writer who hasn't been writing, I often look for inspiration in books written by authors I admire. Laura Drake is now one of those writers.

The complexity of the back-story for both the H/H in this novel are anything but cliché, yet snippets let the characters unfold as the plot progresses. The character arcs are masterful.

I read this book a second time -- notebook beside me -- intending to pick up tips on how she handles unique dialog cues, setting, visceral reactions, pops-on-the-page pacing, and steam scenes. Like another author I follow (Jennifer Crusie), I got caught up in the story the second time through. I felt as if I was on-scene with the characters; seeing what they saw, feeling what they felt. I doubt it will be any different if I try this one a third time.

Leaving it behind

An aging bull rider hopes to end his career with a bang. A medical officer on leave from the army takes a job as a massage therapist for bull riders to help her work through her PTSD. Falling in love can either make or break their relationship. A lot of emotional baggage and insecurities where you just want to say "stay home."

Katya is a compelling character as a female suffering from PTSD. She's also unique in her gypsy "healing" work that she incorporates in modern medicine. I especially loved the passages that described her healing massages and herbal teas.

The hero, Cam, is likeable. Great writing in the way the sub-plots dovetailed into the perfect resolution for them to work out their careers and lives together.

As always, Drake's writing is vivid and fast-paced.

Would give 6 stars if I could!

I have loved all of Laura Drake's Sweet series, but Katya and Cam's story will really touch your heart! They both have issues to deal with and have to find ways to heal what is inside them. The fact that it involves a woman with PTSD is very important today with so many of our military coming back with problems. So many focus on the men without a thought that women are suffering too! You can't go wrong with a Laura Drake book!

Read it; you won't be sorry

I have never written a review of a book before but was compelled to comment on this one. The characters were believable and I found myself rooting for them from the beginning. Laura Drake has become one of my favorite writers and I look forward to reading more. I have read all three books by her in this "sweet" series and loved each of them; they just kept getting better! It was one of those books you wanted to keep reading but didn't want to end. I am sure a true reader who is enjoying a book will understand what I mean. When I finished it I wanted to start reading it over again! Loved it. Will never look at a cowboy in chaps again without thinking of Cam........WOW!
